C&F Design Hackle Pliers

C&F Design Hackle Pliers are the ideal tool for working with normal feathers as well as parachute assemblies. These pliers feature two excellent grips on the clip, offering a large gripping area under the flared points, making them extremely versatile and effective for handling a variety of materials. A unique feature of these pliers is their flexible rubber neck located between the clip and the finger loop. This innovation, while surprising at first glance for its potential durability, turns out to be remarkably strong and of exceptional rubber quality. The elasticity of this rubber neck helps prevent feather keels from breaking during winding, adding an extra dimension of functionality to this brilliant tool. The pliers head features a slight flare at the nose to minimize the risk of cutting material, an attention to detail that speaks to C&F Design's thoughtful design to meet the specific needs of fly tyers. The shock-absorbing elastomer joint and the weight-optimized brass stabilizer with finger hole contribute to the tool's perfect balance and maneuverability. With an elastomer rubber handle and stainless steel head, C&F Design Feather Nippers combine comfort, durability and precision. Whether you're an experienced fly tyer or a beginner, these pliers will quickly become an indispensable part of your tool kit, improving your tying technique and the quality of your flies.
